Dear community, after quite a bit of work, now has a darkmode on the website thanks to the ongoing efforts of our valued team member Dawid Potocki.

To test it out, just go to privacytools.io and click the theme button in the top left corner :)

@Grett the first recommendations where added a long time before most of the current team was involved. With our new criteria, we require VPN companies to be transparent who they work for and partly who they are, nordvpn is owned by a faceless company based in panama, which is why they are not listed, you can look at our recommendations and criteria at the bottem of the page :).

It's official, blog.privacytools.io is live! I've imported a couple backdated posts for testing :)

In the (near) future we'll be posting more long-form articles/guides, news on privacy, etc.

We're also looking for guest bloggers! If you're interested definitely get in touch. We would also be open to "syndicating" (indieweb.org/POSSE) previously published articles if you're already a writer in the privacy space.

@jonah the new format, fleshed out details and explanations look great! very much appreciated!πŸ˜„

@blacklight447 definitely like the categorical breakdown, and explanations rather than just listing those that have met the prescribed criteria alone .... assume it’s following the structure of this review thewirecutter.com/reviews/best ?

As part of our plan to overhaul our VPN section at privacytools.io, we can now proudly present our now VPN layout: privacytools.io/providers/vpn/

Note that we can still add a few refinements later on. Also at the end of 2019 we will re investigate all vpns listed, and lock the amount of providers we recommend to 3.
What do you all think?
